Everything you need to know about custom formulation.
Custom manufacturing builds a formula entirely to your specs — exclusively yours. Private label uses pre-developed stock formulas shared across brands. Custom is the right path when exclusivity matters.
Not including development time, most custom manufacturing orders will be ready to ship 6-8 weeks from the time the order is placed. Production time will depend on whether there are specialty ingredients that have long lead times. Lead times are only available from the raw materials vendor after the order is placed.
Trilogy Laboratories offers some of the lowest minimum order quantities in the industry for custom formulations. Our small-batch production methods make custom skincare manufacturing accessible to micro-enterprises, solo practitioners, and emerging professional brands who cannot afford the high minimums typically required by larger manufacturers. Contact us for specifics based on your formula type.
Timeline depends on formula complexity, the number of prototype revision rounds and stability/preservative testing. Trilogy Laboratories will provide a project-specific timeline estimate during your initial consultation, however you should plan on 4-9 months as a general rule. Our streamlined process is designed to move as efficiently as possible while ensuring every product meets industry standards.
